Great location on the edge of the Old Quarter - hotel is small and has a boutique feel. Can be a little noisy from the traffic as Hanoi is a city full of motor bikes and all use their horms 24 hours a day. Rooms were small, but clean and comfortable and breakfast was great. Made visiting all major sites... more

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights at the start of a week's tour of Vietnam. On the plus side its in a good location, on the edge of the old town and about 20 minutes walk to the main centre. However its on a busy road so do expect traffic noise. The hotel is new, the rooms are... more

The hotel is new with little to no atmosphere. Rooms are big with some design furniture and lack of any warmth. Staff was nice, location was good, quality ok, breakfast really nice.... but still. Where is the nice scenery? First stay was on topfloor with horrible smell from the bathroom. Second room was a toilet flushing over - this hotel... more

We really enjoyed our three days in the Anise, a santuary from the chaos of Hanoi. We stayed in a very nice room overlooking the park, and unlike another reviewer, had no problem with the noise. The room was generous in size and generously appointed. We appreciated the contemporary decor, though others might not. The breakfasts in the top-floor restaurant... more

We spent three nights at the Anise in a Park View room which was very well appointed. The windows are double glazed so we were not disturbed too much by the noise of traffic. The room is basic but has all the amenities that you need. The staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant bar is fine for breakfast and... more

Stayed here for three nights in January and was generally disappointed. On the plus side, Anise is relatively new and clean; its staff are generally friendly and it has an excelent buffet breakfast. But - and this is a big BUT - the hotel is performing seriously below par on the issue of customer service. When paying $80 a night,... more

We spent two nights at the Anise in a Park View room which was very well appointed and a bargain for the price compared to other hotels during our three week trip to IndoChina. On check in staff were friendly and helpful, and one of the bellboys in particular could not do enough for us throughout our stay. The restaurant/bar... more

we first booked a deluxe room park view. at arrival we realized that the park view rooms are faced to the noisy main street where from early in the morning on a lot of motorcycles will hinder you to sleep. we asked for another QUIET room with window and got a marvellous one. There are rooms with window in the... more

Despite being a nice looking hotel, in a good location with spacious rooms, this staff has absolutely no idea what they are doing. Our bed broke, the frame cracked and we couldn't sleep on it. We had to remind them 5 times to get it fixed. Then they didn't clean our room, wouldn't give us more toilet paper when we... more
